Info for Enrolled Students

Do I need to bring anything to (or buy anything for) my first class?

Just bring a pen, paper, and ID. We'll provide the rest. If possible, we also recommend that you bring a smartphone, tablet, or laptop to class. There's no need to buy anything. All the course materials -- the books, exams, app, and video content -- come with the course, free of charge.

Is there any work that I should complete before my first class?

There isn't. If you'd like to get started ahead of time, great! Begin work on our book Arithmetic & "Plan B" Strategies. Start memorizing level 1 of our vocabulary list. (You'll find our list in a PDF attached to the bottom of your personalized welcome email.) None of this is required, though. If you don't do anything before your first class, you'll be just fine.

For a $10 rescheduling fee, our students are welcome to make up any class that they miss in any other course that we offer. To do so, send an email to reschedule@sherpaprep.com. Let us know the class that you'll miss (e.g. "class 3") and we'll send you a list of upcoming make-up options.

I can't find my welcome email.

I can't find my welcome email.

When you enrolled, a personalized welcome email was sent to the email address that you used to sign up. If you enrolled during working hours — which are 9am to 8pm Monday through Thursday, 9am to 6pm on Friday, and 10am to 6pm on weekends — this email was probably sent within a few hours of enrolling, if not sooner. If it's been more than 24 hours since you signed up, and you haven't received our welcome email, check your spam folder. If you still can't find it, or believe that you may have deleted it accidentally, please reach out to us at help@sherpaprep.com!
